Richard F.'s Bio

Hi all. I’m Richard from Toronto Canada. I started my driving career july 13! And have been learning a lot on the job pretty fast. I spent 5 years dealing with truckers as a security guard and I finally got a break in life with a company I’ve dealt with a lot and am enjoying my job so far. Ironically I keep going to the place I worked at for 5 years trying to get away from lol only on the other side of the job 😂

I'm 4'11" with a Criminal Background

I don’t know about the criminal history part but being 6’3 on some trucks i have to have the driver’s side window open to use the clutch lol. So I don’t think being short will be a problem

Forgot how to back

In my experience driving macks (tractor, dump truck,water truck,cement truck,garbage truck,roll off truck) macks don’t turn so you have to turn different than a volvo or anything else really

Az End dump

Hey 👋 I’m currently working for the city of Toronto in haulage. We load our own open top trailers with recycling and yard waste using walking floors if that’s what you’re looking for? It’s a good job and pays $33/hr. Of course it’s union and we’re taxed to death but it pays the bills lol. Check the city of Toronto website if you’re interested

NFI (Merrimack, NH)

I was once asked what NFI stood for and just shrugged and “No F***ing Idea”😂. I dealt with them a lot when I did security before I got into trucking
